Cerulean Warbler Conservation
presented by Deanna
Dawson
Join us
for a photo-presentation into the decline of this strikingly
colored wood-warbler and what efforts are underway to try and improve
its future. They nest in our area in
tall broadleaf trees along rivers and near other water, and can also be
found breeding or in migration from the Great Lakes to the Gulf Coast
and the Mississippi River to the Atlantic Coast. Deanna Dawson, a
biologist at the USGS Patuxent Wildlife Research
Center in Laurel, is active in the Cerulean Warbler Technical
Group, which coordinates and facilitates these activities.

| Welcome to the home page of the Prince George's Audubon
Society (PGAS),
a local chapter of the National Audubon Society serving Audubon members
in the northern part of Prince George's County, Maryland. PGAS
was
established in 1972 as a non-profit organization with officers and a
board
of directors, all volunteers, elected by the general membership.
Membership in PGAS is obtained through the National Audubon
Society.
PGAS members receive our chaper newsletter, The Bluebird, and are
encouraged
to actively participate in chapter activities including a monthly
speaker
series, field trips, annual bird counts, and other special
events.
This website is for members of PGAS to keep up to date
on program and
field trip schedules and other chapter activities. In addition,
this
website serves as a resource for non-members to find out more about
Audubon
and PGAS and to explore the benefits of membership. Non-members
are
welcome to participate in our meetings and field trips and are free to
take advantage of the local birding and environmental information on
this
website as well as the links to a wide range of related information
available
on the internet. Of course, if you live in northern Prince
George's
County we would love to have you as a PGAS member, and membership
information
is always available
